the company you have previously described to us under the code name “Cobra” (the “Target”). You

2.     Titles & Roles.


 


You hereby appoint (a) JPMorgan
Chase Bank to act, and JPMorgan Chase Bank hereby agrees to act as, (i) lead arranger and bookrunner (in such capacities, the “Backstop
Lead Arranger”) and the sole administrative agent for the Backstop Facilities, (ii) joint lead arranger and bookrunner
(in such capacities, a “Term Loan B Lead Arranger”) and the sole administrative agent for the Term Loan B Facility,
(iii) joint lead arranger and bookrunner (in such capacities, a “364-day Bridge Lead Arranger”) and the sole
administrative agent for the 364-day Bridge Facility and (iv) joint lead arranger and bookrunner (in such capacities, a “HY
Bridge Lead Arranger”) for the HY Bridge Facility; provided that JPMorgan Chase Bank’s responsibilities as lead
arrangers and bookrunners for the transactions described in this Agreement may be performed by its affiliate, J.P. Morgan Securities
LLC, and (b) Goldman Sachs to act, and Goldman Sachs hereby agrees to act as, (i) joint lead arranger and bookrunner (in such capacities,
a “Term Loan B Lead Arranger”) for the Term Loan B Facility, (ii) joint lead arranger and bookrunner (in such
capacities, a “364-day Bridge Lead Arranger”) for the 364-day Bridge Facility and (iii) joint lead arranger
and bookrunner (in such capacities, a “HY Bridge Lead Arranger”) and the sole administrative agent for the HY
Bridge Facility, in each case on the terms set forth in this Commitment Letter and subject only to the applicable conditions expressly
set forth in the Exhibits to this Commitment Letter.


 


You also hereby appoint JPMorgan
Chase Bank to act, and JPMorgan Chase Bank hereby agrees to act, as lead arranger and bookrunner (in such capacities, the “Amendment
Lead Arranger,” and together with the Backstop Lead Arranger, each Term Loan B Lead Arranger, each 364-day Bridge Lead
Arranger and each HY Bridge Lead Arranger, the “Lead Arrangers”) for the arrangement of the Specified Amendment.
In its capacity as the Amendment Lead Arranger, JPMorgan Chase Bank agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain
the requisite consent of the Existing Lenders to the Specified Amendment, it being understood and agreed that (a) the Amendment
Lead Arranger shall endeavor to obtain such requisite consent within 45 days after the date hereof and (b) if the requisite consent
for the Specified Amendment shall not have been obtained on or prior to the date that is 45 days after the date hereof, JPMorgan
Chase Bank may at its discretion cease seeking to obtain the requisite consents for the Specified Amendment. You acknowledge that
this Commitment Letter is neither



    	2



    	



    

an expressed nor an implied commitment by the Amendment
Lead Arranger or any of its affiliates to consummate the Specified Amendment (or any part thereof) or to hold or purchase any existing
loans or commitments under the Existing Credit Facilities in order to facilitate the consummation of the Specified Amendment (or
any part thereof), nor is it a guarantee with respect to the outcome of the Specified Amendment. The obligations of the Amendment
Lead Arranger to endeavor to arrange the requisite consent to the Specified Amendment shall not require the Amendment Lead Arranger
or any of its affiliates to share any of the fees payable to it in connection with the Transactions (or otherwise expend any amounts)
in order to achieve such consents.


 


On or prior to the date that
is fifteen (15) calendar days after the date of this Commitment Letter (or such later date as the Commitment Parties may agree),
you may appoint up to four additional financial institutions as agents, co-agents, lead arrangers, bookrunners, managers or arrangers
and up to three more additional financial institutions as co-managers (but not as lead arrangers or bookrunners) in respect of
the Facilities and the Specified Amendment (any such financial institution, an “Additional Arranger”) and/or
confer additional titles in respect of the Facilities and the Specified Amendment on the Additional Arrangers in a manner and with
economics determined by you in consultation with us; provided that: (i) each such Additional Arranger or its affiliates
shall commit to a pro rata portion of each Facility, based on the percentage of economics that can be reallocated as provided below
(and the economics allocated to such Additional Arranger or its affiliates with respect to any Facility will be proportionate to
the percentage of such Facility committed to be provided by such Additional Arranger and its affiliates); provided that
no Additional Arranger shall be required to commit to a portion of the Backup Facilities; (ii) the Commitment Parties’ commitments
hereunder are reduced ratably by the aggregate amount of the commitments allocated to the Additional Arrangers; (iii) no Additional
Arranger shall be allocated a greater percentage of the commitments with respect to any Facility (and corresponding compensatory
economics) than JPMorgan Chase Bank and Goldman Sachs, respectively; (iv) not more than 30% of the aggregate commitments (and corresponding
compensatory economics) with respect to the 364-day Bridge Facility shall be so allocated and not more than 35% of the aggregate
commitments (and corresponding compensatory economics) with respect to each of the Term Loan B Facility and the HY Bridge Facility
shall be so allocated; (v) no Additional Arranger or its affiliates shall be allocated a greater percentage of the compensatory
economics in respect of the Specified Amendment than the percentage of compensatory economics allocated to it, in accordance with
the foregoing provisions, in respect of the Facilities; (vi) such Additional Arrangers shall assume the obligations of the “Commitment
Parties” and, if applicable, the “Lead Arrangers” hereunder on terms reasonably acceptable to the Commitment
Parties and you (including the execution and delivery by such Additional Arrangers of customary joinder documentation) and, thereafter,
each such Additional Arranger shall constitute a “Commitment Party” and, if applicable, a “Lead Arranger”
under this Commitment Letter and under the Arranger Fee Letter (as defined below); and (vii) no Additional Arrangers shall be permitted
with respect to the Backstop Facilities. The commitments and other obligations of the Commitment Parties hereunder are several
and not joint. Subject to the second preceding sentence, no other agents, co-agents, arrangers, co-arrangers, bookrunners, managers
or co-managers will be appointed, no other titles will be awarded and no compensation (other than compensation expressly contemplated
by this Commitment Letter or the Fee Letters (as defined below)) will be paid by you or your



    	3



    	



    

subsidiaries to any Lender as consideration for
its participation in the Facilities or to any Existing Lender as consideration to its consent to the Specified Amendment, in each
case, unless you and we shall so agree. It is further agreed that JPMorgan Chase Bank will have “left” placement and
Goldman Sachs will have “right” placement in any marketing materials or other documentation used in connection with
the Term Loan B Facility and the 364-day Bridge Facility and that Goldman Sachs will have “left” placement and JPMorgan
Chase Bank will have “right” placement in any marketing materials or other documentation used in connection with the
HY Bridge Facility and the Notes. Additional Arrangers are to be listed in alphabetical order beneath JP Morgan Chase Bank and
Goldman Sachs on any marketing materials used in connection with the Facilities and the Notes.


 


3.     Syndication.


 


The Commitment Parties reserve
the right, prior to or after the execution of the definitive documentation for the Facilities, to syndicate the Facilities to one
or more financial institutions or other lenders in consultation with and reasonably acceptable to you (together with the Commitment
Parties, the “Lenders”), it being understood that the Permitted Lenders (as defined below) are reasonably acceptable
to you, and it being understood that the Facilities may be separately syndicated. The Commitment Parties agree not to syndicate
the Facilities to, or assign their commitments under the Facilities to, (a) certain banks, financial institutions and other institutional
lenders that have been specified by you in writing to the Lead Arrangers at any time prior to the date hereof, (b) any of your
competitors that have been specified to the Lead Arrangers by you in writing before the Closing Date or to the applicable Administrative
Agent by you in writing after the Closing Date at any time and from time to time and (c) in the case of each of clauses (a) and
(b), any of their respective affiliates (other than any bona fide debt funds) that are either (x) identified in writing to the
Lead Arrangers or, after the Closing Date, the applicable Administrative Agent by you from time to time or (y) clearly identifiable
as affiliates of such persons on the basis of such affiliate’s name (the foregoing persons, collectively, the “Disqualified
Lenders”), it being understood and agreed that the foregoing provisions shall not apply retroactively to disqualify any
person that shall have become a Disqualified Lender after the date of the launch of the general syndication for any Facility if
such person shall have become a Lender or participant (or shall have been allocated a commitment as part of the general syndication
of such Facility) prior thereto, but shall disqualify such person from taking any further assignment or participation thereafter).
Notwithstanding our right to syndicate the Facilities and to receive commitments with respect thereto, other than as expressly
provided in the final paragraph of Section 2 above, (A) no Commitment Party shall be relieved, released or novated from its obligations
hereunder (including its obligation to fund the Facilities on the Closing Date) in connection with any syndication, assignment
or participation of the Facilities until after the Closing Date has occurred, (B) no assignment or novation shall become effective
(as between you and any of us) with respect to all or any portion of any Commitment Party’s commitments in respect of the
Facilities until the initial funding of the Facilities by such Commitment Party and (C) unless you otherwise agree in writing,
each Commitment Party shall retain exclusive control over all rights and obligations with respect to its commitments in respect
of the Facilities and this Commitment Letter, including all rights with respect to consents, modifications, supplements, waivers
and amendments, until after the Closing Date has occurred. For purposes of this Commitment Letter, “Permitted Lender”
shall mean (i) a Commitment Party



    	4



    	



    

and any of its controlled affiliates,
(ii) any person that (A) is an Existing Lender as of the date hereof or (B) is a commercial or investment bank or an insurance
company that, in each case under this clause (B), at the time of such assignment has a long-term senior unsecured, non-credit enhanced
debt rating of at least BBB by Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC (“S&P”) or Baa2 by Moody’s
Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”) and is not a Disqualified Lender or (iii) any other person to which
you shall have consented in writing.


 


Until the earlier to occur of
(a) the date on which a Successful Syndication (as defined in the Arranger Fee Letter) shall have occurred and (b) 60 days after
the Closing Date (such period, the “Syndication Period”), you agree to assist us in arranging the Specified
Amendment and completing syndications of the Facilities that are reasonably satisfactory to the Lead Arrangers and you. Such assistance
shall include (i) your using commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the arrangement and syndication efforts benefit from
your and your subsidiaries’ existing banking relationships and, to the extent practical and appropriate, the existing banking
relationships of the Target and its subsidiaries, (ii) direct contact between your senior management, on the one hand, and the
Existing Lenders and the proposed Lenders, on the other hand (and subject to your rights under the Acquisition Agreement (as defined
in Exhibit A hereto), your using commercially reasonable efforts to ensure such contact between the senior management of
the Target, on the one hand, and the Existing Lenders and the proposed Lenders, on the other hand), at such times during normal
business hours as are mutually agreed, (iii) your assistance (and subject to your rights under the Acquisition Agreement, your
using commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Target and its subsidiaries to assist) in prompt preparation of customary confidential
information memoranda (the “Confidential Information Memoranda”) and other customary marketing materials to
be used in connection with the arrangement and syndication efforts by providing information and other customary materials reasonably
requested by us in connection therewith (such marketing materials and the Confidential Information Memoranda, collectively, with
the Term Sheets and the information and projections referred to in the next succeeding paragraph, the “Information Materials”),
(iv) the hosting, with the Lead Arrangers, of one or more meetings of and conference calls with the Existing Lenders and the prospective
Lenders, at times and locations mutually agreed upon and upon reasonable advance notice (provided that, without your consent,
there shall be no more than one general bank meeting for the Facilities (other than the Term Loan B Facility) and one general bank
meeting for the Term Loan B Facility), (v) your ensuring that there are not any competing issues of debt securities or commercial
bank or other credit facilities (including incremental commitments or loans or extensions of existing commitments or loans) of
you or your subsidiaries (and, subject to your rights under the Acquisition Agreement, your using commercially reasonable efforts
to ensure the same with respect to the Target and its subsidiaries) offered, placed, announced or arranged (excluding the Facilities,
the Notes or any other debt securities issued for the purpose of consummating the Acquisition), to the extent such offering, placement,
announcement or arrangement could reasonably be expected to materially impair the arrangement of the Specified Amendment, the primary
syndication of the Facilities or the marketing of the Notes, in each case, without the prior written consent of the Lead Arrangers
(such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) (it being understood that the Borrower’s and its subsidiaries’
deferred purchase price obligations, ordinary course working capital facilities (other than any new or incremental revolving credit
facilities), borrowings under existing facilities (other than under any incremental commitments established or extended under such
facilities after the date hereof) and



    	5



    	



    

ordinary course capital leases,
purchase money and equipment financings, and any indebtedness of the Target and its subsidiaries permitted to be incurred and remain
outstanding pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement will not, in each case, be deemed to materially impair the arrangement of the
Specified Amendment, the primary syndication of the Facilities or the marketing of the Notes), and (vi) prior to the launch of
the syndication of the Facilities and the commencement of the marketing period for the Notes, using your commercially reasonable
efforts to (x) obtain an updated monitored public corporate credit rating from S&P and an updated monitored public corporate
family rating from Moody’s, in each case, with respect to the Borrower and (y) obtain public ratings of the Term Loan B Facility,
the 364-day Facility and the Notes from each of S&P and Moody’s. Such assistance shall also include, in respect of the
Specified Amendment, your cooperating with the Amendment Lead Arranger in seeking to obtain the requisite consent of the Existing
Lenders to the Specified Amendment (including, without limitation, by negotiating in good faith the terms of the Specified Amendment
(including considering in good faith such amendments of the Existing Credit Facility as may be reasonably requested by the Existing
Lenders in respect of the Acquisition and the Target and its subsidiaries and such assignments under the Existing Credit Facility
as the Amendment Lead Arranger may request be made to facilitate obtaining such requisite consent) and your entering into the Specified
Amendment at such time as the Amendment Lead Arranger shall advise you that the Existing Lenders are willing to provide the requisite
consent thereto. Without limiting your obligations to assist with arrangement and syndication efforts as set forth above, each
Commitment Party agrees that neither the obtaining of the requisite consent to the Specified Amendment nor the commencement or
the completion of the syndication of any Facility or the receipt of any rating referred to above is a condition to its commitment
hereunder. The financial statements identified in paragraphs 3, 4 and 5 of Exhibit H hereto are the only financial statements
the delivery of which are conditions to the availability of the Facilities.


 


The Lead Arrangers will manage,
in consultation with you, all aspects of the syndication of the Facilities and the arrangement of the Specified Amendment, including,
without limitation, selection of Lenders, determination of when the Lead Arrangers will approach the Existing Lenders or potential
Lenders and the time of acceptance of the Lenders’ commitments or the Existing Lenders’ consents and any naming rights,
and will, subject to your consent in the case of any Lender that is not a Permitted Lender, determine the Lenders whose commitments
will be accepted, the final allocations of the commitments among the Lenders and the amount and distribution of fees among the
Existing Lenders and the Lenders. To assist the Lead Arrangers in their syndication and arrangement efforts, you agree promptly
to prepare and provide to the Lead Arrangers (and, subject to your rights under the Acquisition Agreement, to use commercially
reasonable efforts to cause the Target to prepare and provide to the Lead Arrangers) all customary information with respect to
you, the Target and your and its subsidiaries and the Transactions, including, without limitation, all customary financial information
and the projections of and other forward-looking information with respect to you, the Target and your and its subsidiaries after
the Transactions (the “Projections”), that the Lead Arrangers may reasonably request in connection with the
structuring, arrangement and syndication of the Facilities and the arrangement of the Specified Amendment.


 


You acknowledge that (a) subject
to the confidentiality obligations contained herein, the Commitment Parties on your behalf will make available the Information
Materials



    	6



    	



    

and other information relating
to the Specified Amendment and the Facilities, including drafts and final definitive documentation with respect thereto, to the
Existing Lenders and the proposed Lenders by posting the Information Materials and such other information on IntraLinks, SyndTrak,
Datasite or another similar electronic system, in accordance with the Lead Arrangers’ standard syndication practices (including
hard copy and via electronic transmissions), it being understood and agreed that all information so disseminated or provided shall
continue to be subject to the terms of any written confidentiality agreements heretofore or hereafter executed by the Lead Arrangers
and the confidentiality provisions set forth herein, and (b) certain Existing Lenders and prospective Lenders (such Lenders, “Public
Lenders”; all other Existing Lenders or Lenders, “Private Lenders”) may have personnel that do not
wish to receive Private Lender Information (as defined below). If requested, you agree to assist in the preparation of a version
of the Confidential Information Memoranda (and related marketing materials) and presentations to be distributed to Public Lenders
in connection with the arrangement of the Specified Amendment and the syndication of the Facilities consisting exclusively of information
and documentation that is either (i) publicly available or (ii) not material with respect to you, your subsidiaries, the Target
or its subsidiaries or any securities of any of the foregoing for purposes of the United States Federal or state securities laws
(the information and documentation described in clauses (i) and (ii) being “Public Lender Information”). Any
information and documentation that is not Public Lender Information is referred to herein as “Private Lender Information.”
It is understood that in connection with your assistance described above, customary authorization letters will be included in any
Confidential Information Memorandum that authorize the distribution of such Confidential Information Memorandum to the Existing
Lenders or prospective Lenders, containing a representation from you to the Lead Arrangers that the public-side version does not
include any Private Lender Information and a customary “10b-5” representation consistent with Section 6 below (and
you shall, subject to your rights under the Acquisition Agreement, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Target to deliver
customary authorization letters containing such representations from the Target to the Lead Arrangers, it being understood that
the customary “10b-5” representation by the Target, in the case of authorization letters delivered by the Target, shall
not be qualified by knowledge), and exculpating (x) the Commitment Parties and their respective affiliates with respect to any
liability related to the use of the contents of such Confidential Information Memorandum or any related marketing material by the
recipients thereof and (y) you or your subsidiaries with respect to any liability related to the misuse of the contents of such
Confidential Information Memorandum. You agree that the Commitment Parties on your behalf may distribute the following documents
to all Public Lenders and Private Lenders (other than Disqualified Lenders), unless, after having been given a reasonable opportunity
to review such documents, you advise the Commitment Parties that such material should only be distributed to Private Lenders: (a)
drafts and final definitive documentation with respect to the Facilities and the Specified Amendment; (b) administrative materials
prepared by the Lead Arrangers for the Existing Lenders or prospective Lenders (such as a lender meeting invitation, bank allocation,
if any, and funding and closing memoranda); and (c) notification of changes in the terms of the Facilities or the Specified Amendment.
If you advise us in writing that any of the foregoing items should be distributed only to Private Lenders, then the Commitment
Parties will not distribute such materials to Public Lenders without further discussions with you. At our request, you shall designate
information to be distributed solely to Public Lenders by clearly and



    	7



    	



    

conspicuously designating the
same as “PUBLIC” (it is understood that you shall not otherwise be under any obligation to designate information as
“PUBLIC”).


 


For the avoidance of doubt,
you will not be required to provide any information to the extent that the provision thereof would violate any law, rule or regulation,
or any obligation of confidentiality binding on you or your affiliates.


 


4.     Fees.


 


As consideration for our commitments
hereunder and our undertakings to arrange, manage, structure and syndicate the Facilities and arrange the Specified Amendment,
you agree to pay to us the fees and fulfill the other obligations set forth in the Term Sheets and in the arranger fee letter among
us and you dated the date hereof (the “Arranger Fee Letter”) and each of the administrative agent fee letters
among you and JPMorgan Chase Bank and Goldman Sachs, respectively, dated the date hereof (the “Administrative Agent Fee
Letters” and, together with the Arranger Fee Letter, the “Fee Letters”).


 


5.     Conditions Precedent.


 


Our commitments and agreements
hereunder are subject solely to the satisfaction or waiver of the applicable conditions expressly stated in Exhibit H hereto;
it being understood that there are no conditions (implied or otherwise) to the commitments hereunder (including compliance with
the terms of the Commitment Letter, the Fee Letters and the Loan Documents (as defined below)) other than those that are expressly
stated in Exhibit H (and upon satisfaction or waiver of such conditions, the initial funding under the Facilities shall
occur). Notwithstanding anything in this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letters, the Loan Documents or any other letter agreement or
other undertaking to the contrary, (a) the only representations and warranties the accuracy of which shall be a condition to availability
of the Facilities on the Closing Date shall be (i) the Acquisition Agreement Representations (as defined below) and (ii) the Specified
Representations (as defined below) and (b) the terms of the Loan Documents shall be in a form such that they do not impair the
availability of the Facilities on the Closing Date if the applicable conditions expressly set forth in Exhibit H hereto
are satisfied (or waived by the Commitment Parties) (it being understood that, to the extent any collateral (including the grant
or perfection of any security interest, other than (x) the delivery of certificates evidencing equity interests for the Borrower’s
wholly-owned direct and indirect material U.S. subsidiaries (which are not direct or indirect subsidiaries of entities not organized
in the U.S.), including the Target, to the extent certificated and required to be pledged as set out in the Term Sheets, but not
including equity interests of the Target’s subsidiaries and (y) any Collateral the security interest in which may be perfected
by the filing of a Uniform Commercial Code financing statement for entities organized in the U.S.) referred to in the Term Sheets
is not or cannot reasonably be provided on the Closing Date after your use of commercially reasonable efforts to do so or without
undue burden or expense, then the provision of such collateral and perfection therein shall not constitute a condition precedent
to the availability of the Facilities on the Closing Date, but may instead be provided or perfected within 45 days after the Closing
Date (in each case, subject to extensions to be reasonably agreed upon by the applicable Administrative Agent)). For purposes of
the foregoing, (A) “Acquisition Agreement Representations” means such



    	8



    	



    

representations and warranties
made by the Target in the Acquisition Agreement as are material to the interests of the Lenders, but only to the extent that you
(or your applicable subsidiaries) have the right (taking into account any applicable cure periods) to terminate your (or its) obligation
to consummate the Acquisition under the Acquisition Agreement or the right not to consummate the Acquisition pursuant to the Acquisition
Agreement as a result of a breach of such representations and warranties, and (B) “Specified Representations”
means the representations and warranties of the Loan Parties set forth in the Loan Documents relating to corporate or other organizational
existence of the Loan Parties, organizational power and authority (as to execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents)
of the Loan Parties, the due authorization, execution, delivery and enforceability of the Loan Documents by the Loan Parties, in
each case as it relates to entering into and performance of the Loan Documents against or by the Loan Parties, the Loan Documents
not conflicting with the Loan Parties’ respective organizational documents, solvency as of the Closing Date (after giving
effect to the Transactions) of the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries on a consolidated basis (such representation and warranty
to be consistent with the solvency certificate substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit I hereto), Federal Reserve
margin regulations, Investment Company Act status, subject to permitted liens and the limitations set out in the preceding sentence,
the creation, validity and perfection of the security interests granted in the collateral (solely in the case of the Backstop Facility
and the Term Loan B Facility,), compliance with Patriot Act and use of proceeds not violating OFAC and FCPA. The provisions in
this Section 5 are referred to as the “Limited Conditionality Provisions.” For the avoidance of doubt, “Loan
Documents” as used in this Commitment Letter shall mean (i) if the Specified Amendment is not obtained prior to the Closing
Date, the Backstop Documentation, the Term Loan B Documentation, the 364-day Bridge Documentation and the HY Bridge Documentation
and (ii) if the Specified Amendment is obtained prior to the Closing Date, the Term Loan B Documentation, the 364-day Bridge Documentation
and the HY Bridge Documentation only.


 


6.     Information.


 


You hereby represent and warrant
(but the accuracy of such representation and warranty shall not be a condition to the commitments hereunder, the arrangements of
the Specified Amendment or the funding of the Facilities) that (a) all written information (other than the Projections, estimates
and information of a general economic, forward looking or industry nature and limited to your knowledge prior to the Closing Date
as to the Target and its subsidiaries) (the “Information”) that has been or will be made available to the Commitment
Parties by you or any of your representatives or affiliates on your behalf, when taken as a whole, is or will be, when furnished,
correct in all material respects and does not or will not, as the case may be, taken as a whole, contain any untrue statement of
a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein not materially misleading
in light of the circumstances under which such statements are made (when taken as a whole and after giving effect to all supplements
and updates thereto) and (b) the Projections that have been made or will be made available to the Commitment Parties by you or
any of your representatives or affiliates on your behalf and that have or will be made available to us or any Lender in connection
with the Transactions have been or will be, as the case may be, prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed by the preparer
thereof to be reasonable at the time so made available (it being recognized by us that such Projections are subject to significant



    	9



    	



    

uncertainties and contingencies,
many of which are beyond your control, are not to be viewed as facts, that actual results during the period or periods covered
by any such Projections may differ from the projected results and such differences may be material, and that no assurance can be
given that any projection will be realized). You agree to supplement the Information and the Projections from time to time until
the later of the Closing Date and the completion of the Syndication Period, so that the representations and warranties in the preceding
sentence each remain correct. In arranging the Facilities and the Specified Amendment, including the syndication of the Facilities,
we will be entitled to use and rely primarily on the Information and the Projections without responsibility for independent verification
thereof.


 


7.     Expenses.


 


Subject to and contingent upon
Closing, you agree to pay or reimburse each Commitment Party for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses
(including, without limitation, expenses of such Commitment Party’s due diligence investigation, syndication expenses, travel
expenses and reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of outside counsel identified in the Term Sheets and one local counsel
(limited to a single firm of counsel for all of the Commitment Parties) retained in any material relevant jurisdiction to the extent
reasonably necessary) incurred by such Commitment Party or its affiliates (whether incurred before or after the date hereof) in
connection with the Facilities and the Specified Amendment and the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of this Commitment
Letter, the Fee Letters, the Loan Documents and any security arrangements in connection therewith and any such fees and expenses
incurred in connection with the enforcement of any of the Commitment Parties’ rights and remedies hereunder. The provisions
of this Section 7 will be superseded by the definitive documentation for the Facilities.


 


8.     Indemnification.


 


You agree to indemnify and hold
harmless each Commitment Party and its affiliates and each Commitment Party’s and its affiliates’ respective officers,
directors, employees, advisors, agents, other representatives, controlling persons, members, partners and successors and permitted
assigns (each Commitment Party and each such other person being an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any
and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses, joint or several, to which any such Indemnified Person may become subject
arising out of or in connection with this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letters, the Term Sheets, the Transactions and the other transactions
contemplated hereby, the Specified Amendment, the Facilities, the use of proceeds therefrom and any claim, litigation, investigation
or proceeding (any of the foregoing, a “Proceeding”) relating to any of the foregoing, regardless of whether
any such Indemnified Person is a party thereto and regardless of whether a Proceeding is brought by a third party or by you, the
Target or any of your or its respective affiliates or equity holders or any other person, and to reimburse each such Indemnified
Person upon demand for any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with investigating, defending
or testifying in connection with any of the foregoing (limited, in the case of legal expenses, to one counsel to the Indemnified
Persons taken as a whole and, if reasonably necessary, one local counsel in each relevant material jurisdiction and, in the case

to each group of affected Indemnified
Persons similarly situated, taken as a whole; provided that the foregoing indemnity will not, as to any Indemnified Person,
apply to losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (a) to the extent they have been determined in a final, non-appealable
judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted primarily from the willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence
of such Indemnified Person, or material breach by such Indemnified Person of its obligations under this Commitment Letter or the
Loan Documents, or (b) that have resulted from any dispute solely among the Commitment Parties not arising from any act or omission
by the Borrower, the Target or their respective affiliates, other than any proceeding against an Indemnified Person in its capacity
or fulfilling its role as an administrative agent, arranger or other agent or any similar role under the Facilities or in respect
of the Specified Amendment, provided further that such Indemnified Person shall promptly repay to you all expense
reimbursements previously made pursuant to this paragraph to the extent that such Indemnified Person is finally determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction not to be entitled to indemnification hereunder as contemplated by the preceding proviso of this
paragraph. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Commitment Letter, no Indemnified Person shall be liable for (i) any damages
arising from the use by others of information or other materials obtained through electronic, telecommunications or other information
transmission systems, except to the extent such damages have been determined in a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of
competent jurisdiction to result from the willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence of such Indemnified Person, or (ii)
any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages in connection with its activities related to this Commitment Letter, the
Specified Amendment, the Facilities or the use of proceeds thereunder.


 


You shall not be
liable for any settlement of any Proceedings effected without your prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably
conditioned, withheld or delayed), but if settled with your prior written consent or if there is a judgment by a court of competent
jurisdiction in any such Proceedings, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person from and against any and
all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses by reason of such settlement or judgment in accordance with the preceding
paragraph. You shall not, without the prior written consent of an Indemnified Person (which consent shall not be unreasonably conditioned,
withheld or delayed), effect any settlement or consent to the entry of any judgment of any pending or threatened Proceedings in
respect of which indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional
release of such Indemnified Person in form and substance satisfactory to such Indemnified Person from all liability on claims that
are the subject matter of such Proceedings, (ii) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or
a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person and (iii) contains customary confidentiality and non-disparagement provisions.
Except to the extent arising from your indemnification and expense reimbursement obligations under this Commitment Letter, the
Loan Documents or any other written agreement to which any such person is a party, in no event shall you, the Target and your and
its respective subsidiaries and affiliates be liable for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages.

extent that you have consented in writing prior to such disclosure; provided that the disclosure of any such information
to any Existing Lenders, any Lenders or prospective Lenders, participants or prospective participants or derivative counterparties
or prospective derivative counterparties referred to above shall be made subject to the acknowledgment and acceptance by such Existing

person, (v) the Commitment Parties
have not assumed and will not be deemed to assume an advisory, agency or fiduciary responsibility in your or your affiliates’
favor with respect to any of the financing transactions contemplated hereby (irrespective of whether any Commitment Party has advised,

obligation to you or your affiliates with respect to the financing transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly
set forth in this Commitment Letter and the Engagement Letter and (vi) the Commitment Parties and their respective affiliates may
be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from yours and those of your affiliates, and the
Commitment Parties have no obligation to disclose any of such interests to you or your affiliates. You hereby agree that you will
not assert any claim against the Commitment Parties based upon any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection
with any aspect of any financing transaction contemplated by this Commitment Letter. No Commitment Party has provided any legal,
accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to the Transactions and the other transactions contemplated by this Commitment
Letter and the Term Sheets and you have consulted with your own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent you
have deemed it appropriate to do so.


 


As you know, Goldman, Sachs
& Co. has been retained by you (or one of your affiliates) as financial advisor (in such capacity, the “Financial
Advisor”) in connection with the Acquisition. The parties hereto agree to such retention, and further agree not to assert
any claim you might allege based on any actual or potential conflicts of interest that might be asserted to arise or result from
the engagement of the Financial Advisor, on the one hand, and Goldman, Sachs & Co. and its affiliates’ relationships
with you as described and referred to herein, on the other.


 


10.   Termination.


 


Our commitments and undertakings
hereunder shall terminate in their entirety automatically without further notice or action by us on the first to occur of (a) the
date which is five (5) business days after July 5, 2017; provided that in the event that the “End Date” under
the Acquisition Agreement shall have been extended to a later date pursuant to the provisos to Section 8.01(b)(i) thereof, the
date in this clause (a) shall be extended to such later date (but, in any event, no later than October 5, 2017), (b) the date of
the closing of the Acquisition, effective immediately following such closing, with or without the use of any portion of the Facilities,
and (c) the termination of the Acquisition Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof (such earliest date, the “Termination
Date”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the effectiveness of the Specified Amendment, the commitments and any other
obligations of the Commitment Parties in respect of the Backstop Facility or the Specified Amendment (or any part thereof) shall
be terminated and have no further force or effect without any further action by the Commitment Parties or you.


 


Notwithstanding anything in
this Section 10 to the contrary, the termination of any commitment pursuant to this Section 10 does not prejudice your or our rights
and remedies in respect of any breach of this Commitment Letter that occurred prior to such termination.

The Fee Letters and the compensation,
reimbursement, indemnification, syndication, information, jurisdiction, absence of agency or fiduciary relationship, conflicts

satisfaction of the conditions to such funding set forth herein. Any assignment in violation of the foregoing shall be null and
void. This Commitment Letter is intended to be solely for the benefit of the parties hereto and the Indemnified Persons and is
not intended to confer any benefits upon, or create any rights in favor of or be enforceable by, any person other than the parties
hereto and the Indemnified Persons, except that the Commitment Parties may perform the duties and activities described hereunder

and loans under the Existing Credit Facility, which will be available to be drawn at the Closing, subject to the satisfaction or
waiver of the conditions set forth in the Backstop Facilities Term Sheet.


 


(b)     The Borrower will obtain
a seven-year senior secured term loan B facility (the “Term Loan B Facility,” together with the Existing Credit
Facilities or the Backstop Facilities, as applicable, the “Senior Secured Facilities”) in an aggregate principal
amount of $1,375 million, which Term Loan B Facility may take the form of an incremental term loan incurred under the Existing
Credit Agreement.

a 364-day senior unsecured bridge facility (the “364-day Bridge Facility”) in an aggregate principal amount

applicable will be applied to the Debt Repayment and to pay a portion of the Cash Consideration (as defined in the Acquisition
Agreement) and all or a portion of the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Transactions (such fees and expenses,
the “Transaction Costs”) and, if the Specified Amendment is not obtained on or prior to the Closing Date, the
proceeds of loans under the Backstop Facilities on the Closing Date may be applied to repay loans under the Existing Credit Facilities
and to pay the Transaction Costs and letters of credit under the Backstop Facilities may be used to replace, backstop or, subject
to the consent of the issuer thereof, “grandfather” any letters of credit.

        shall mean, with respect to any indebtedness, the yield thereon, as determined by the Borrower in good faith consistent
        with generally accepted financial practices, after giving effect to, among other factors, margin, interest rate floors,
        upfront or similar fees or original issue discount shared with all providers of such financing, with upfront fees and
        original issue discount being equated to interest margins based on an assumed four year life to maturity, but excluding

    or defects (it being understood that if a modification of any provision in the definitive documentation is proposed pursuant
    to this clause (c), but the Borrower and the Backstop Lead Arrangers fail to mutually agree on any modification of such provision
    in the requisite time period to allow effectiveness on the Closing Date, such provision shall be in the form of the corresponding
    provision of the Existing Credit Facilities). The Backstop Documentation shall contain only those conditions to borrowing,
    mandatory prepayments, representations and warranties, affirmative, negative and financial covenants and events of default
    set forth in this Exhibit C, which, subject to the preceding sentence, shall be substantially consistent with, but
    no less favorable to the Borrower in any respect than, the Existing Credit Facilities. The TLB Backstop Facility may be documented

    C and Exhibit D, as applicable (such facility the “Combined Term Facility”).

    and Collateral Provisions” as set forth in the immediately succeeding paragraph, be required to become guarantors. The
    Borrower and the guarantors are collectively referred to as the “Loan Parties.”
	 	 	 
	Guarantee
    and Collateral Provisions:	 	Subject to the Term
    Loan B Documentation Principles and the Limited Conditionality Provisions, the Borrower’s obligations shall be secured
    by a perfected first priority security interest in all of the Borrower’s and Target’s tangible and intangible
    assets, subject to limitations and exclusions which shall be substantially the same as those set forth in the Existing Credit
    Facilities.
	 	 	 
	Maturity:	 	Loans under the Term
    Loan B Facility will mature seven years after the Closing Date, and will be subject to amortization at the rate of 1.00% per
    annum with a bullet payment at the final  maturity thereof.
	 	 	 
	Interest
    Rate:	 	The Borrower may elect that the
        Term Loan B loans bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (a) the Base Rate plus 175.0 basis points or (b) the Adjusted
        LIBO Rate plus 275.0 basis points.

         

        As used herein:

         

        “Base Rate”
        shall have the meaning given to “ABR” in the Existing Credit Agreement.

         

        “Adjusted LIBO Rate”
        shall have the meaning given to “Eurodollar Rate” in the Existing Credit Agreement.

         

        In no event shall the Adjusted
        LIBO Rate be less than zero or the Base Rate be less than the one-month Adjusted LIBO Rate plus 1.00% per annum.

         

        The Borrower may select, in respect
        of Eurodollar loans, Interest Periods of one week or one, two, three or six months or such shorter or longer period as
        may be consented to by each Term Loan B Lender.

         

        Interest will be payable in arrears
        (a) with respect to each Base Rate Loan, on the first business day of each calendar quarter during the term of such Base
        Rate Loan and (b) with respect to each Eurodollar Loan, on the last day of the applicable interest period relating thereto;
        provided that in the event that the interest period for a Eurodollar Loan shall be for a period in excess of three
        months, then interest shall also be payable on each three month anniversary of the commencement of such interest period.

        Cash Flow Payment is due and (z) solely to the extent such Excess Cash Flow is attributable to foreign subsidiaries, amounts
        that may not be repatriated and applied to prepayments without material adverse tax consequences for the Borrower; provided that such mandatory prepayments shall be shared on a pro rata basis with the equivalent mandatory prepayment requirements
        under the TLB Backstop Facility (whether or not documented as a Combined Term Facility).

    debt financing by the Borrower or any restricted subsidiaries having a Yield at the time of incurrence thereof that is less
    than the Yield of such Term Loan B loans at the time of such incurrence or (b) any amendment to the credit agreement that,
    directly or indirectly, reduces the Yield of the Term Loan B loans. No “Repricing Transaction” shall be deemed
    to occur in connection with any change of control, initial public offering or transformative investment or acquisition (each
    such term to be defined in a manner to be mutually agreed).
	 	 	 
	Documentation:	 	The
    definitive documentation for the Term Loan B Facility (the “Term Loan B Documentation”) will be drafted
    by counsel to Borrower, negotiated in good faith by Borrower and the Commitment Parties and will be based on the Existing
    Credit Agreement (and may be incurred as an incremental term loan under the Existing Credit Agreement), as in effect on the
    date of the Commitment Letter but after giving effect to the Specified Amendments, and solely with such other modifications
    thereto as are required to reflect (a) the terms and conditions set forth in this Exhibit D, (b) scheduled exceptions
    to the representations and warranties to be subject to the reasonable approval of the Term Loan B Lead Arrangers, except with
    respect to any exceptions scheduled to the Existing Credit Facilities or otherwise previously disclosed to the Commitment
    Parties) and (c) modifications to the Existing Credit Facilities to account for changes in law or accounting standards or
    to cure mistakes or defects (it being understood that if a modification of any provision in the definitive documentation is
    proposed pursuant to this clause (c), but the Borrower and the Term Loan B Lead Arrangers fail to mutually agree on any modification
    of such provision in the requisite time period to allow effectiveness on the Closing Date, such provision shall be in the
    form of the corresponding provision of the Existing Credit Facilities). The Term Loan B Documentation shall contain only those
    conditions to borrowing, mandatory prepayments, representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and events
    of default set forth in this Exhibit D, which, subject to the preceding sentence, shall be substantially consistent
    with, but no less favorable to the Borrower in any respect than, the Existing Credit Facilities. In the event that the TLB
    Backstop Facility becomes effective, the Term Loan B Facility may be documented together with the TLB Backstop Facility as
    a Combined Term Facility (as defined in Exhibit C). The principles set forth in this paragraph
    are referred to as the “Term Loan B Documentation Principles.”

Project Cobra


364-day Senior Unsecured Bridge Facility

Summary of Principal Terms and Conditions


 


Capitalized terms
used but not defined in this Exhibit E shall have the meanings set forth in the Commitment Letter to which this Exhibit
E is attached or the other Exhibits to the Commitment Letter.

    Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”).
	 	 	 
	Lead Arrangers and Bookrunner:	 	JPMorgan
    Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMorgan Chase Bank”), Goldman Sachs Bank USA (“Goldman Sachs”) and
    each other financial institution appointed as a lead arranger and/or bookrunner pursuant to the terms of the Commitment Letter
    (collectively, the “364-day Bridge Lead Arrangers”).
	 	 	 
	Administrative Agent:	 	JPMorgan
    Chase Bank will act as sole administrative agent (in such capacity, the “364-day Bridge Administrative Agent”).
	 	 	 
	Transactions:	 	As
    described in Exhibit A to the Commitment Letter.
	 	 	 
	Lenders:	 	JPMorgan
    Chase Bank (or one of its affiliates), Goldman Sachs and a syndicate of financial institutions and other lenders (the “364-day
    Bridge Lenders”) arranged by the 364-day Bridge Lead Arrangers as contemplated by the Commitment Letter.
	 	 	 
	Type and Amount of Facility:	 	A senior
    unsecured 364-day bridge loan facility (the “364-day Bridge Facility”) under which the 364-day Bridge Lenders
    will make senior increasing rate loans (the “364-day Bridge Loans”) to the Borrower on the Closing Date
    in an aggregate principal amount of up to $300.0 million, less all reductions on or prior to the Closing Date pursuant
    to the “Mandatory Prepayment/Commitment Reductions” section below.
	 	 	 
	Purpose:	 	The
    proceeds of the 364-day Bridge Loans will be used to finance in part the Acquisition, the Debt Repayment and the Transaction
    Costs until such time that the Borrower completes a repatriation to the United States of cash held in certain foreign subsidiaries.
	 	 	 
	Availability:	 	The
    full amount of the 364-day Bridge Facility must be drawn in a single drawing on the Closing Date concurrently with the consummation
    of the Acquisition. Amounts repaid or prepaid under the 364-day Bridge Facility may not be reborrowed.




    	E-1



    	



    

	Ranking:	 	The
    364-day Bridge Loans will rank pari passu with other senior unsecured indebtedness of the Borrower.
	 	 	 
	Guarantees:	 	Substantially
    the same as and limited to those set forth in the Existing Credit Facilities. The Target and each of its material domestic
    subsidiaries that would be required to guarantee the Existing Credit Facilities will be required to become guarantors. The
    Borrower and the guarantors are collectively referred to as the “Loan Parties.”

    prior to the final maturity thereof.

        364-day Bridge Loans bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (a) the Base Rate plus 175.0 basis points or (b)
        the Adjusted LIBO Rate plus 275.0 basis points. Such margins will increase by (a) 25.0 basis points 180 days after
        the Closing Date and (b) an additional 25.0 basis points each 90 days thereafter.

         

        In no event shall the Adjusted
        LIBO Rate be less than zero or the Base Rate be less than the one-month Adjusted LIBO Rate plus 1.00% per annum.

         

        The Borrower may select, in respect
        of Eurodollar loans, Interest Periods of one week or one, two, three or six months or such shorter or longer period as
        may be consented to by each 364-day Bridge Lender.

         

        Interest will be payable in arrears
        (a) with respect to each Base Rate Loan, on the first business day of each calendar quarter during the term of such Base
        Rate Loan and (b) with respect to each Eurodollar Loan, on the last day of the applicable interest period relating thereto;
        provided that in the event that the interest period for a Eurodollar Loan shall be for a period in excess of three
        months, then interest shall also be payable on each three month anniversary of the commencement of such interest period.

    Bridge Loans that are Base Rate Loans plus 2.00% per annum.
	 	 	 
	Mandatory Prepayments/Commitment
    Reductions:	 	The Borrower shall prepay the
        364-day Bridge Loans or, prior to the funding of the 364-day Bridge Facility on the Closing Date, the commitments in respect

        (a)     100%
        of any net cash proceeds received by the Borrower as a distribution or dividend from any Foreign Subsidiary (as defined
        in the Existing Credit Facilities) of the Borrower (other than in the ordinary course), less the amount of taxes payable
        or reasonably estimated by the Borrower to be payable as a result of such repatriation (it being understood that this
        clause shall not apply to intercompany payments including repayment of receivables or intercompany debt); and

        of the net cash proceeds received by the Borrower from any Specified Debt Incurrence or Specified Equity Issuance after
        the Closing Date; provided that (i) no such mandatory prepayments shall be required under this clause (b) with
        respect to the incurrence of any Specified Debt Incurrence constituting secured debt, (ii) no such mandatory prepayments
        shall be required under this clause (b) with respect to any debt or equity until such amounts are applied in satisfaction
        of the equivalent mandatory prepayment or commitment reduction requirements under the HY Bridge Facility (or such Facility
        is no longer outstanding), (iii) if the HY Bridge Facility is no longer outstanding or the equivalent mandatory prepayment
        or commitment







    	E-3



    	



    

	 	 	reduction requirements
        with respect thereto have already been satisfied, the Borrower may, in its discretion, apply such proceeds pursuant to
        this clause (b) or any equivalent mandatory prepayment or commitment reduction requirements under the TLB Backstop Facility
        and Term Loan B Facility (or any combination of the foregoing) and (iv) no such mandatory prepayments shall be required
        under this clause (b) with respect to the proceeds from any offering of the Notes.

        “Specified Debt
        Incurrence”         means any issuance or incurrence of (a) the Notes, (b) any other debt securities (including
        debt securities convertible         into equity and any equity-linked or hybrid debt-equity securities) of the Borrower or
        any of its restricted subsidiaries,         in each case, whether pursuant to a public offering or in a Rule 144A or other
        private placement, (c) indebtedness under         any loan or other credit facility (other than the 364-day Bridge Facility,
        the HY Bridge Facility, Backstop Facilities         or Term Loan B Facility) of the Borrower or any of its restricted
        subsidiaries and (d) any other indebtedness for borrowed         money of the Borrower or any of its restricted subsidiaries,
        in each case, other than (i) intercompany debt between the         Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries, (ii) for the
        avoidance of doubt, indebtedness of the Borrower and its subsidiaries         and other subsidiaries that are “excluded
        subsidiaries” under the Existing Credit Facility, including, after         the Closing Date, (iii) borrowings under the
        Existing Credit Facilities (but not any incremental commitments thereunder         effected after the date of the Commitment
        Letter), (iv) refinancings of any existing indebtedness of the Borrower, provided that such refinancing does not
        increase the aggregate outstanding amount thereof, other than by the amount of accrued         and unpaid interest on the
        indebtedness being refinanced and the amount of any costs, fees and expenses incurred in connection         therewith, (v)
        deferred purchase price obligations, (vi) ordinary course working capital facilities (other than any revolving         credit
        facilities), (vii) ordinary course capital leases, purchase money and equipment financings, (viii) any Permitted         Debt
        and (ix) any indebtedness of the Target and its subsidiaries incurred prior to the Closing Date permitted to be incurred

        whether pursuant to a public offering or in a Rule 144A or other private placement, other than (a) any equity securities
        issued pursuant to employee stock plans or other employee compensation plans, (b) equity securities issued as consideration
        in the Acquisition or in any other acquisition, (c) issuances of directors’ qualifying shares and/or







    	E-4



    	



    

	 	 	other
    nominal amounts required to be held by persons (other than the Borrower or its subsidiaries under applicable law) by the Borrower
    or any of its subsidiaries or (d) issuances of Permitted Preferred Stock (as defined in the Existing Credit Facilities), in
    each case on or after the date of the Commitment Letter.
	 	 	 
	Optional Prepayment:	 	The
    364-day Bridge Loans may be prepaid at any time, in whole or in part, at par plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date
    of prepayment but without premium or penalty, subject to reimbursement of the Bridge Lenders’ breakage costs, upon not
    less than three (3) business days’ prior written notice, at the option of the Borrower.
	 	 	 
	Documentation:	 	The
    definitive documentation for the 364-day Bridge Facility (the “364-day Bridge Documentation”) will be drafted
    by counsel to Borrower, negotiated in good faith by Borrower and the Commitment Parties and will be based on the Existing
    Credit Agreement, as in effect on the date of the Commitment Letter but after giving effect to the Specified Amendments, and
    solely with such other modifications thereto as are required to reflect (a) the terms and conditions set forth in this Exhibit
    E, (b) the interim nature of the 364-day Bridge Facility and the fact that the 364-day Bridge Facility is an unsecured
    term loan facility, (c) the 364-day Bridge Administrative Agent’s customary agency and mechanical provisions, (d) scheduled
    exceptions to the representations and warranties to be subject to the reasonable approval of the 364-day Bridge Lead Arrangers,
    except with respect to any exceptions scheduled to the Existing Credit Facilities or otherwise previously disclosed to the
    Commitment Parties and (e) modifications to the Existing Credit Agreement that are mutually agreed to account for changes
    in law or accounting standards or to cure mistakes or defects (it being understood that if a modification of any provision
    in the definitive documentation is proposed pursuant to this clause (e), but the Borrower and the 364-day Bridge Lead Arrangers
    fail to mutually agree on any modification of such provision in the requisite time period to allow drawing on the Closing
    Date, such provision shall be in the form of the corresponding provision of the Existing Credit Agreement). The 364-day Bridge
    Documentation shall contain only those conditions to borrowing, mandatory prepayments, representations and warranties, affirmative,
    negative and financial covenants and events of default expressly set forth in this Exhibit E, which, subject to the
    preceding sentence, shall be substantially consistent with, but no less favorable to the Borrower in any respect than, the
    Existing Credit Agreement. The principles set forth in this paragraph are referred to
    as the “364-day Bridge Documentation Principles.”

HY Bridge Facility


Summary of Principal Terms and Conditions


 


Capitalized terms used but not
defined in this Exhibit F shall have the meanings set forth in the Commitment Letter to which this Exhibit F is attached
or the other Exhibits to the Commitment Letter.


 


	Borrower:	 	Gartner, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”).
	 	 	 
	Lead Arrangers and Bookrunner:	 	Goldman Sachs Bank USA (“Goldman Sachs”) and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMorgan”) and each other financial institution appointed as a lead arranger and/or bookrunner pursuant to the terms of the Commitment Letter (collectively, the “HY Bridge Lead Arrangers”).
	 	 	 
	Administrative Agent:	 	Goldman Sachs will act as sole administrative agent (in such capacity, the “HY Bridge Administrative Agent” and, together with the Existing Credit Facilities Administrative Agent, the Backstop Administrative Agent, the Term Loan B Administrative Agent, the 364-day Bridge Administrative Agent, the “Administrative Agents” and each, an “Administrative Agent”).
	 	 	 
	Transactions:	 	As described in Exhibit A to the Commitment Letter.
	 	 	 
	Lenders:	 	Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan (or one of its affiliates), and a syndicate of financial institutions and other lenders (the “HY Bridge Lenders”) arranged by the HY Bridge Lead Arrangers as contemplated by the Commitment Letter.
	 	 	 
	Type and Amount of Facility:	 	A senior unsecured high yield bridge loan facility (the “HY Bridge Facility”) in an aggregate principal amount of up to $600.0 million; provided that such principal amount will be reduced by the aggregate principal amount of Notes (or other Specified Debt Incurrence or any Specified Equity Issuance) which are funded into escrow prior to the Closing Date (if any) or as otherwise agreed by the HY Bridge Lead Arrangers (it being understood that (a) the first $600.0 million of principal amount of Notes issued prior to the Closing Date shall reduce the HY Bridge Facility before reducing any other Facility and (b) any such issuance of Notes (or other Specified Debt Incurrence or any Specified Equity Issuance) prior to the Closing Date shall be issued (or deemed issued) into escrow) or that are funded on the Closing Date.
	 	 	 
	Purpose:	 	The proceeds of the loans under the HY Bridge Facility will be used to finance in part the Acquisition, the Debt Repayment and the






    	F-1



    	



    

	 	 	Transaction Costs.
	 	 	 
	Availability:	 	The full amount of the HY Bridge Facility will be made available on the Closing Date. 
	 	 	 
	Ranking:	 	The loans under the HY Bridge Facility (the “HY Bridge Loans”) will rank pari passu with other senior unsecured indebtedness of the Borrower.
	 	 	 
	Guarantees:	 	Substantially the same as and limited to those set forth in the Existing Credit Facility. The Target and each of its material domestic subsidiaries that would be required to guarantee the Existing Credit Facility will be required to become guarantors. The Borrower and the guarantors are collectively referred to as the “Loan Parties.”
	 	 	 
	Maturity/Exchange:	 	
        The HY Bridge Loans will initially mature on the first
        anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Initial HY Maturity Date”), with such maturity to be extended as provided
        below. If any of the HY Bridge Loans have not been previously repaid in full on or prior to the Initial HY Maturity Date and no
        bankruptcy (with respect to the Borrower) event of default then exists, such HY Bridge Loans shall automatically be extended to
        the eighth anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Extended Term Loans”). The Lenders in respect of such Extended
        Term Loans will have the option at any time or from time to time after the Initial HY Maturity Date to receive Exchange Notes (the
        “Exchange Notes”) in exchange for such Extended Term Loans having the terms set forth in the term sheet attached
        hereto as Exhibit G; provided that a Lender may not elect to exchange its outstanding Extended Term Loans for Exchange
        Notes unless the conditions set forth in Exhibit G under “Principal Amount” have been satisfied.

         

        The HY Bridge Loans, the Extended Term Loans and the
        Exchange Notes shall rank pari passu for all purposes.



	 	 	 
	Interest Rates:	 	Prior to the Initial HY Maturity Date, the Borrower may elect that the HY Bridge Loans bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (a) the Base Rate (as defined in Exhibit D hereto) plus 3.50% (the “Initial Margin”) or (b) the Adjusted LIBO Rate (as defined in Exhibit D hereto) plus 4.50%.  Such margins will increase by 50.0 basis points every 90 days after the Closing Date. At no time shall the interest rate in effect on the HY Bridge Loans exceed the Total Cap (as defined in the Arranger Fee Letter).
	 	 	 
	 	 	Upon the occurrence of a Demand Failure Event (as defined in the Arranger Fee Letter), the outstanding HY Bridge Loans shall




    	F-2



    	



    

	 	 	
        automatically begin to bear interest at the Total Cap.

         

        In no event shall the Adjusted LIBO Rate be less than 1.00% or the Base
        Rate be less than the one-month Adjusted LIBO Rate plus 1.00% per annum.

         

        The Borrower may select, in respect of Eurodollar loans, Interest Periods
        of one week or one, two or three months or such shorter or longer period as may be consented to by each HY Bridge Lender.

         

        Interest will be payable in arrears (a) with respect to each Base Rate
        Loan, on the first business day of each calendar quarter during the term of such Base Rate Loan and (b) with respect to each Eurodollar
        Loan, on the last day of the applicable interest period relating thereto; provided that in the event that the interest
        period for a Eurodollar Loan shall be for a period in excess of three months, then interest shall also be payable on each three
        month anniversary of the commencement of such interest period.

         

	Mandatory Prepayments:	 	
        Subject to the HY Documentation Principles, substantially
        the same as those set forth in the Existing Credit Facilities and including mandatory prepayments for the following:


	 	 	 
	 	 	 	(a)	100% of the net cash proceeds received by the Borrower from any Specified
Debt Incurrence after the Closing Date; provided that no such mandatory prepayments shall be required under this clause
(a) until the first anniversary of the Closing Date with respect to any Specified Debt Incurrence constituting secured debt; and
	 	 	 	 	 
	 	 	 	(b)	100% of the net cash proceeds received by the Borrower from any Specified Equity Issuance after the Closing Date.
	 	 	 
	Optional Prepayment:	 	The HY Bridge Loans may be prepaid at any time, in whole or in part, at par plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of prepayment but without premium or penalty upon not less than three (3) business days’ prior written notice, at the option of the Borrower.
	 	 	 
	Documentation:	 	The definitive documentation for the HY Bridge Facility (the “HY Bridge Documentation) will be drafted by counsel to Borrower, negotiated in good faith by Borrower and the Commitment Parties and will be based on the Existing Credit Agreement, as in effect on the date of the Commitment Letter but after giving effect to the Specified Amendment and solely with such other modifications thereto as are required to reflect (a) the terms and conditions set forth in this Exhibit F, (b) the interim nature of the HY Bridge Facility and the fact







    	F-3



    	



    

	 	 	that the HY Bridge Facility is an unsecured term loan facility, (c) the HY Bridge Administrative Agent’s customary agency and mechanical provisions, (d) scheduled exceptions to the representations and warranties to be subject to the reasonable approval of the HY Bridge Lead Arrangers, except with respect to any exceptions scheduled to the Existing Credit Facilities and (e) such modifications as may be appropriate to reflect the differences between the Existing Credit Facility and a high-yield bridge.  The HY Bridge Documentation shall contain only those conditions to borrowing, mandatory prepayments, representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and events of default expressly set forth in this Exhibit F, which, subject to the preceding sentence, shall be substantially consistent with those included in customary “high-yield” bridge financings of this type, including customary incurrence-based negative covenants and not including any financial maintenance covenants. The principles set forth in this paragraph are referred to as the “HY Bridge Documentation Principles.”
	 	 	 
	Conditions Precedent to Borrowing:	 	The availability of the borrowing under the HY Bridge Facility on the Closing Date shall only be subject to the Limited Conditionality Provisions and the applicable conditions set forth in Exhibit H to the Commitment Letter.
	 	 	 
	Representations and Warranties:	 	Subject to the  HY Bridge Documentation Principles and the Limited Conditionality Provisions, substantially consistent with customary “high-yield” bridge financings of this type, it being understood that the representations and warranties made on the Closing Date will cover the Target and its subsidiaries (in the case of “excluded subsidiaries” of the Target, only to the extent such representations and warranties cover the “excluded subsidiaries” of the Borrower) and the Acquisition and the other Transactions.
	 	 	 
	Covenants:	 	Subject to the HY Bridge Documentation Principles and the Limited Conditionality Provisions, the HY Bridge Facility will contain such affirmative and incurrence-based negative covenants as are usual and customary for “high-yield” bridge financings of this type, subject to (i) modifications to reflect current market conditions and other modifications to be mutually agreed and (ii) it being understood and agreed that prior to the Initial HY Maturity Date, certain covenants of the HY Bridge Loans may be more restrictive than those of the Extended Term Loans and the Exchange Notes, as reasonably agreed by the HY Bridge Lead Arrangers and the Borrower. The HY Bridge Facility will not include any financial covenants.
	 	 	 
	Events of Default:	 	Usual for facilities and transactions of this type, and others as reasonably agreed by the HY Bridge Lead Arrangers and the






    	F-4



    	



    

	 	 	Borrower. Following the Initial HY Maturity Date, the events of default relevant to the HY Bridge Loans will automatically be modified so as to be consistent with the Exchange Notes.
	 	 	 
	Cost and Yield Protection:	 	Subject to the  HY Bridge Documentation Principles and the Limited Conditionality Provisions, substantially the same as and limited to those set forth in the Existing Credit Facilities.
	 	 	 
	Assignments and Participation:	 	Subject to the  HY Bridge Documentation Principles and the Limited Conditionality Provisions, substantially the same as and limited to those set forth in the Existing Credit Facilities.
	 	 	 
	Voting:	 	Subject to the  HY Bridge Documentation Principles and the Limited Conditionality Provisions, substantially the same as and limited to those set forth in the Existing Credit Facilities.

        Prior to the third anniversary of the Closing Date,
        the Issuer may redeem such Exchange Notes at a make-whole price based on U.S. Treasury notes with a maturity closest to the third

13.        (a)
The Borrower shall have engaged one or more Investment Banks (as defined in the Arranger Fee Letter) and shall have provided the
Investment Banks with a preliminary offering memorandum relating to offering of the Notes by the Borrower in a form customary for
offerings of high yield debt securities under Rule 144A (other than a “description of notes” (provided that the Borrower
shall have used good faith efforts to finalize the “description of notes”)) and including all information as would
be customary in a preliminary offering memorandum for an offering of high-yield debt securities under Rule 144A, including discussion
of the Borrower and the Target, financial statements, pro forma financial statements and such other data that would enable the
Investment Banks to obtain customary comfort letters (including customary negative assurance comfort) from the Borrower’s
and the Target Business’s independent public accountants (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include financial
statements required by Rule 3-10 or Rule 3-16 of Regulation S-X, information regarding executive compensation (including under
Rule 402(b) of Regulation S-K) or other information customarily excluded from a Rule 144A offering memorandum) and (b) the



    	H-3



    	



    

Investment Banks shall have been
afforded a period of at least 15 consecutive business days commencing upon the date of the delivery of the offering memorandum
described in clause (a) above to seek to offer and sell or privately place the Notes (it being understood that (i) at all times
during the Marketing Period the financial information in the preliminary offering memorandum shall be in compliance in all material
respects with all requirements of Regulation S-K and Regulation S-X as they would be applied to the offering memorandum as if it
were a prospectus under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and (ii) none of the information (other than the financial information)
included in the offering memorandum shall at any time during the Marketing Period contain any untrue statement of a material fact
or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein not misleading in light of the circumstances
under which such statements are made) (the “Notes Marketing Period”); provided that (a) such 15 consecutive
business day period shall exclude January 16, 2017, February 20, 2017, April 14, 2017, May 29, 2017 and July 4, 2017 and (b) if
the Borrower in good faith reasonably believes that it has delivered the preliminary offering memoranda required by this paragraph
13, it may deliver to the Investment Banks written notice to that effect (stating when it believes it completed the applicable
delivery), in which case such preliminary offering memoranda shall be deemed to have been delivered on the date of the applicable
notice unless the Borrower receives written objection from the Investment Banks within five business days after the date such notice
is received. If the Borrower receives such written objection and the Borrower in good faith reasonably believes that it has remedied

Project Cobra

Solvency Certificate


 


Pursuant to Section [·]
of the Credit Agreement, dated [·], 2017, among Gartner, Inc. (the “Borrower”),
the Lenders from time to time party thereto and [·], as administrative agent, the
undersigned hereby certifies, solely in such undersigned’s capacity as [Chief Financial Officer] of the Borrower, and not
individually, as follows:


 


As of the date hereof, after giving effect
to the consummation of the Transactions (as defined in the Credit Agreement), and after giving effect to the application of the
proceeds of such indebtedness under such Transactions:


 


		(a)	The amount of the fair saleable value of the assets of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries
on a consolidated basis exceeds:



 


		(i)	the value of all liabilities of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries (on a consolidated
basis), including contingent and other liabilities, as generally determined in accordance with applicable United States federal
laws governing determinations of the insolvency of debtors; and



 


		(ii)	the amount that will be required to pay the probable liabilities of the Borrower and its Restricted
Subsidiaries on its existing debts (including contingent liabilities) as such debts become absolute and matured;



 


		(b)	The Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries (on a consolidated basis) do not have an unreasonably
small amount of capital for the operation of the businesses in which it is engaged or proposed to be engaged; and



 


		(c)	The Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries (on a consolidated basis) will be able to pay its
liabilities, including contingent and other liabilities, as they mature.



 


For purposes of this Certificate,
each of the phrases “not have an unreasonably small amount of capital for the operation of the businesses in which they are
engaged or proposed to be engaged” and “able to pay their liabilities, including contingent and other liabilities,
as they mature” means that the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries will be able to generate enough cash from operations,
asset dispositions or refinancing, or a combination thereof, to meet its obligations as they become due. Capitalized terms used
but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Credit Agreement.


 


The undersigned is familiar
with the business and financial position of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries. In reaching the conclusions set forth
in this Certificate, the undersigned has made such other investigations and inquiries as the undersigned has deemed appropriate,
having taken into account the nature of the particular business anticipated to be conducted by the Borrower and its Restricted
Subsidiaries after consummation of the Transactions.
